Kate Church
Kate Church refers to her work as “sculptural puppetry” combining the line and form of sculpture with the playful anima of puppetry.
The intention of the work is to carry a silent imprint or sense of emotion through the posture and expression of the figure evolving in front of her. Built using a process that is movable throughout its construction, a tangible sense of emerging comes naturally to the finished sculpture. In fact, most of the figures can be altered and adjusted; movement is part of their design.
Details embroidered with movement and grace speaking of curiosity, delight, tenderness and humour … expressions of life. The pieces Kate Church builds somehow defy conventional interpretation. They are not dolls, nor are they formal sculptures.
Kate’s exceptional tallent as a creative designer was engaged by the world famous troupe, Cirque du Soleil.
